Rathod, M. L., Aw, W. Y., Huang, S., Lu, J., Doherty, E. L., Whithworth, C. P., … Polacheck, W. J. (2024, January 7). SMALL.

By: M. Rathod n, W. Aw n, S. Huang n, J. Lu  n, E. Doherty  n, C. Whithworth*, G. Xi *, P. Roy-Chaudhury *, W. Polacheck n

author keywords: blood-derived endothelial cell; cardiovascular; chronic kidney disease; indoxyl sulfate; microfluidics; organs-on-chip; uremic toxin
TL;DR: The engineered microvessels presented here have the potential to be utilized to risk stratify and to direct personalized treatments for patients with chronic kidney disease and an increase in sensitivity compared to traditional 2D assays. (via Semantic Scholar)

Patient-derived extracellular matrix demonstrates role of COL3A1 in blood vessel mechanics

ACTA BIOMATERIALIA, 166, 346–359.

By: E. Doherty  n, W. Aw n, E. Warren  n, M. Hockenberry *, C. Whitworth *, G. Krohn  n, S. Howell *, B. Diekman n ...

author keywords: Vascular Ehlers-Danlos syndrome; Cell derived matrix; Collagen III; Mechanotransduction; ECM mechanics; Viscoelasticity
TL;DR: This work generates fibrous, collagen-rich ECM from primary donor cells from patients with vascular Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, a disease caused by mutations in the gene that encodes collagen III, and observes that ECM grown from vEDS patients is characterized by unique mechanical signatures, including altered viscoelastic properties.
